…pledges to join forces with Oyebanji, Tinubu’s administrations
Former Candidate of the Action Democratic Party in Ekiti 2022 gubernatorial election , Kemi Elebute-Halle, has officially defected to the All Progressives Congress in Ikole-Ekiti.
Elebute-Halle, who was the Director-General, ADP 2023 Presidential Campaign and the party’s National Deputy Chairman, South, was unveiled on Friday by the ruling party in Ward 10, Oke Ayedun in Ikole local government.
She was received as a member of APC by Aare Afolabi Ogunlare, Leader of the APC in Ward 10 Ikole-Ekiti alongside the Ward Chairman of the party, Ogunsunmosule Tunbosun at the Ward secretariat in Oke Ayedun, Ikole-Ekiti.
Receiving Elebute-Halle to the ruling party, Aare Ogunlare said that she is a proven material that will be an advantage to the party and Ekiti State.
His words: “Elebute-Halle is a value. She is just like salt, if you go to the market to buy salt you don’t taste it because the taste is already proven. So, she is already a proven material; even when she was not the winner of that election she continued to touch the lives of the people. If such a fellow comes to a winning party, it is going to be a lot of advantage to that party.”
Expressing her delight, Elebute-Halle said she was motivated by the giant strides of Governor Biodun Oyebanji and President Bola Tinubu to join the party.
She further stated that she would serve the party and join forces with the present administration for the growth and development of the state.
According to her, “I have my friends in the party. I feel much more comfortable in APC because of the way our Governor is working and again I believe in the renewed hope agenda of his Excellency, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
“I am a service oriented leader and that is the same thing I told my followers in ADP. So for me, I am coming to APC to serve. I am a naturally born humanitarian person. I would allow nature and the service I give to give me back what I sow to it; I am not expecting anything from anyone.”
An elated Ward 10 APC Chairman, Hon. Tunbosun said “her value is too much for us, we really need her. We have been looking for her for long to join us and we commend her bold step today.”
A mammoth crowd of supporters, party faithful, party leaders and top government dignitaries graced the occasion.
